The LEGO Principle

September 3, 2012
The author uses the metaphor of the familiar children's building blocks to create Brick by brick a story of Christian discipleship and relationships in community. "Ultimately the LEGO® Principle boils down to a question of values," he writes. Every spiritual connection humans have in the world comes through ideals that flow from knowing God and treating each other as we want to be treated. Bonifacio, a minister in a Manila church, uses the Bible, the church fathers, his own family stories, and many contemporary Christian writers, to create vivid stories for readers. Bonifacio (The Promise No One Wants) goes back to the creation and evolution of LEGO® building blocks to illustrate his ideas about following Christ. Each chapter ends with a LEGO® Lesson, providing a moral compass about how to live the Christian life. This is a book of simple truths about everyday discipleship that will appeal to an evangelical Christian audience.
